Donald Trump is "suggesting" the elimination of the federal minimum wage.
The repulsive Republican nominee for president repeatedly "suggested" he would support a higher minimum wage, a reversal from his"suggestion" when he had conservative opponents.
But he "newly suggested" on Sunday that states should decide such wages.
“I like the idea of ‘let the states decide’,” Trump told NBC’s Meet the Press. “But I would "suggest" people should get more. I think they’re out there. They’re working. It is a very low number.”
Asked “should the federal government set a floor” – a national minimum wage – Trump replied: “I don't know, but I would "suggest" the states go out and do what they have to do.
“And the states compete with each other, not only other countries, but they compete with each other.”
"But again, I'm not the president right now. Right now everything I put out there is merely a suggestion".
